The goal of this book is to provide a clear and concise understanding of catching trophy largemouth and smallmouth bass without a lot of fluff. Graphics and line charts that have been presented in many other bass fishing books were intentionally omitted. Many pictures were inputted to enhance text understanding and make the book entertaining and an easy read. The format is to present some foundation information in each chapter followed by detailed tips and presentations in Sections V and VI. The book begins with the concepts of critical thinking. The importance of safety on the water, the development of a trophy bass fisherman, the behavior of trophy bass, timing for trophies, and angler versatility are discussed. Research and development is presented along with a discussion of rods, reels, lures, lines, and knots. How trophy largemouth and smallmouth bass respond to the various seasons are presented. The importance of record keeping and analysis is emphasized. We then discuss catching trophy largemouth and smallmouth bass on purpose. This leads to the master craftsman phase of bass fishing i.e. planning for success, how water temps affects both species, good conservation practices, and the solunar influence on lunker bass. Fishing for trophy bass at night and during the cold-water periods are presented. An understanding that the angler must learn to fish off-shore for the trophies is emphasized. Finally, Sections V and VI provide detailed tips, lures, and presentations on how to catch trophy largemouth and smallmouth bass. These chapters use water temperatures as a guide to catch both species of bass during the spring, summer, fall, and winter seasons. Lastly, the angler must understand that right time, right place and right presentation is the formula for success! This involves critical thinking and attention to detail. An angler must exercise patience and follow the process!
